Answer:
The equation of the line is y = 2x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The form of the linear equation is y = m x + b, where
- m is the slope of the line,
- b is the y-intercept (value y at x = 0)
Let us take two points on the line to find its equation
∵ Points (3, 3) and (0, -3) lie on the line
∴ x1 = 3 and y1 = 3
∴ x2 = 0 and y2 = -3
→ Use the rule of the slope above to find m
∵ 
∴ m = 2
→ Substitute its value in the form of the equation above
∴ y = 2x + b
∵ b is the value of y at x = 0
∵ y = -3 at x = 0
∴ b = -3
→ Substitute it in the equation above
∴ y = 2x + -3
→ Remember (+)(-) = (-)
∴ y = 2x - 3
∴ The equation of the line is y = 2x - 3
Scott: 8,748 x 30% = 2,624.40 his share for health insurance.
2,624.40 / 52 weeks = 50.47
50.47 x 2 = 100.94 (biweekly pay) CHOICE D.
Jarvis: 41 y.o male ; 115,000 for 20 years.
115,000 / 1,000 = 115
115 x 13.68 = 1,573.20 annual premium
1,573.20 / 52 weeks = 30.25 weekly deduction CHOICE D.

Marco: 3,000 (1.0425)^17 = 3,000 x 2.029 = 6,087 CHOICE D. about 17 years.
Stephen: 8,000 x 6.75% p.a. = 540 / 2 (semi annual) = 270 CHOICE A.
Skye: 36,192 annual salary / 52 weeks = 696 weekly salary
696 x 4% deduction = 27.84 skye's share
696 x 3% deduction = 20.88 employer's share
27.84 + 20.88 = 48.72 nearest to CHOICE D.
